Toshiro

Toshiro (Hitsugaya-taicho!) hated the fact that his dæmon was unsettled. As a captain, he had to project a certain aura of confidence and maturity, but that was hard to do when the snowy owl perched on his shoulder abruptly turned into a hissing cat at his feet, or a staring basilisk clinging to his haori. Inevitably, the older shinigami he was talking to would smother a smile and try to continue on as if nothing had happened, but Toshiro could feel the condescension.

One day, his frustration finally boiled over and he confronted his dæmon about it.

"Why won't you just settle already! I know who I am…just choose a form and stick with it!"

Tmira glared back as a cobra (nothing quite matches the stare of a snake).

"Yeah? Then what form should I take? A dog, an eagle, a cat? Maybe a tiger or a wolf?

"Just choose!"

"You don't know either!"

"I'm a shinigami captain; that's who I am."

"That's what you are, not who! I'm your soul, not your job, and so long as you define yourself like that, I'll never be able to settle!"

She transformed into a squirrel and scurried off in a huff, leaving a stunned Toshiro behind.
